If it hadn't been for a certain goal-less draw at Southampton it might have happened to us - and I would certainly have thought that was a bloody good thing! - at the time anyway; no knowing how it would have turned out.

He stays another season on loan there now, a clause in his loan deal apparently.

Doesnt Ipswich have an option to buy if they were promoted. We may well have lost him for good, which I think would be a shame

I think it's only been done 4 time before (in the Premier League era).
Watford and Man City did it in the late 90's - early 00s and both were relegated after one season in the PL.
Norwich got back to back promotions 2009-10 and 2010-11 season and spent 3 seasons in the PL.
Southampton were runners up to us in 2010-11 in League One, they then finished 2nd in the Championship in the 11-12 season. They then spent 11 seasons in the PL before being relegated last season.

Ipswich Town have joined an exclusive club with promotion today.
Since the inception of the Premier League, they have become just the fifth side to earn promotion from the third tier to the top flight.
They follow Watford (1998-99 and 1999-00), Manchester City (1999-00 and 2000-01), Norwich City (2010-11 and 2011-12) and Southampton (2011-12 and 2012-13).

I assume you had forgotten about the banner replicated above?
I didn’t understand it.
Were they taking the piss out of Mastercard?
I suppose you need a tight knit family to understand that sort of humour.

Suppose it depends on the fee, but he’s been a bit-part player in their season, so not sure that they’d be that fussed.
No I hadn't forgotten. I put it down to a few confused fans. It's nice to see a different club in the PL, and even better to see Leeds fail.

That banner was widely derided by the fans and local press. Pretty funny anyway.
Yeah just different from the norm. It's been a while.
